Spring Series - Wednesday @ 10:30am
Every season at Rooted in Play Outdoor Learning, we focus on helping children develop one of 8 core skills they need to become curious, capable learners who can contribute to their world. This Spring, we focus on creativity!
We’ll help kids develop creative mindsets and strategies that they can use throughout their lives to invent new things, solve problems, express their ideas and feelings, and to nurture relationships. And, we’ll do it all through enriching, outdoor play!
The core lessons follow a steady progression and are organized into three units:
Building Blocks (lessons 1-3): we focus on the Three B's: building, breaking, and blending. We use these three core processes when we are creative.
Creative Thinking (lessons 4-6): we use pretending to explore divergent thinking and discover many possible solutions to problems.
Creative Expression (lessons 7-9): we explore how we can express ideas and feelings through art, music, and movement.
